Joan reviewed: Copper Foil Stained Glass Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"The copper foil stained glass course was excellent. I had never worked with glass before, but the tutor Sharon explained everything clearly and was always available to help which gives you confidence. The course was extremely well organised, there was lots of choice of materials and everyone was able to finish pieces. I enjoyed the day, and took home two finished items."

Ian Clemm reviewed: Silver Clay Jewellery Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire

"I had a very enjoyable day learning all about silver clay and made some lovely pendants to take away. They must be good as I’ve got my wife and daughter fighting over them. The tutor was great, the setup and personal touch of a goodie bag was a very nice touch. I can thoroughly recommend this if you have never done this before, or even if you have. As the only male on the day I was made to feel welcome and part of the group. "

Nicky Edwards reviewed: Wire Alliums Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"I had such a wonderful time on this course. I received a warm welcome and the offer of tea or coffee. Excellent tuition by Laura who is a very talented artist.

The Craft Barn is a beautiful venue and directions provided were easy to follow. Such an uplifting experience! "

It was a mixed group of couples and single students all very friendly and I even managed to complete my day with a finished product. I am going to book more courses in the future. "

Ali reviewed: Copper Foil Stained Glass Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"This was a Christmas gift from me to my mum and we attended together. What a lovely day! Comfortable surroundings, kind and patient tutors and a relaxed atmosphere. At a time where more people are seeking experiences rather than ‘things’ to give loved ones as gifts, this course and others like it are just brilliant for ensuring we put the time aside to spend with each other. A joy to spend a day mindfully engaging with gaining a new skill. Many thanks indeed!"

Roberta Daniel-Thomas reviewed: Pyrography Beginners Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire Border

"I had a great time learning pyrography and produced a nice piece of artwork. Sharon the tutor was so patient and very informative. I was inspired by her to buy a pyrography kit when I got home. You don’t need to be an artist nor a good drawer to do the class either. I’m looking at the Craft Barn for other classes now."
